    This is one of the easiest backup devices to use. I have purchased three of them to back up my laptop. Keep two handy and one in the bank safety deposit box. They have performed great. I feel my data is well protected. No issues.

    I bought the Seagate backup plus 2TB to store my pictures and PDF files on. It works perfect for me because it’s small in size and doesn’t take up a lot of room on my desk. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to store their important data, pictures or files without taking up a lot of room on their computer.

    Because it is small and light compared to our old external drives it is convenient to store right on my desk. I moved all our vacation videos and pictures to the Back-up Plus Slim External USB Drive and it helps my computer to runs faster with less data stored in it. Very easy.

    This was fantastic! The Sd card in my phone cratered one day and now I'm paranoid it may happen again. So I got a second external drive to double up on safety. This is so nice and slim and was easy plug in and started using it. Great investment. I may get one for my husbands data.

    You can't go wrong with Seagate. I've only owned Seagate portable hard drives. One I have had for decades. Very reliable. This is a slim compact large capacity. I don't think I'd go with any other brand.

    Our son has an older Xbox 1 and it doesn't have a lot of storage and with the size of games anymore he can only have 1-2 games on his system. We purchased this storage and he loves it and no complaints on communication with the system.

    I have purchased several WD back up devices, and each one has burnt out and I lost my data. This is the second Seagate back up device and is used for my entire business. I still have the first one and this one is my additional safety back up. It is reliable and I like that it takes up little space.
